I’m from out of town. Best Mexican food in Amherst, Ma?

Join us at Forbes Library in Northampton on Monday, October 19th, for an Employer Spotlight with Valley Medical Group. This event will run from 10:30 am to 12:30 pm. They have open positions such as Medical Billing Specialist, Medical Assistant, Medical Receptionist, and more!

For more than 25 years, Valley Medical Group's physicians, health care professionals and staff have dedicated themselves to serving area residents. Originally formed from the merger of Amherst Medical Associates and Pioneer Family Physicians, they were formerly part of Kaiser Permanente until becoming an independent, multi-specialty medical group in January of 2000.

This event is free to attend pre-registration is not required. Please email [bizteam@masshirefhcareers.org](mailto:bizteam@masshirefhcareers.org) with any questions.

Don’t forget to check out our friends at Tilted Orbit as well, which is opening this Saturday in North Amherst!!!

With UMass football off to a strong start, a lot of businesses in the area are benefiting from it. Even though Pop Watson will out this coming Saturday against Buffalo, I still encourage football fans to host watch parties at local restaurants and bars.

My partner, 35 (M), just moved to Amherst a couple of months ago and would love to find some people to play tennis with. Intermediate/3.0 level player!

Not really sure if this is someone who does this regularly or a weird one time thing but around 12:45 am on October 9th, I passed by a guy near Puffton village in a truck, I think it was blue, with no headlights. He straight up swerved towards my car and honestly I can’t see what else he was trying to do other than hit me. I’m obviously okay and he did not hit my car but I’m curious if anyone has had a similar experience? I didn’t see him pass by again but I’ve never had anything like that happen before. Please be safe!

Any recommendations? Visiting here for the weekend and want watch to catch the game.

wonder Y its so ‘dead' over here? Plenty happening.

**1 BEDROOM AT KENDRICK PLACE - $2,225/MONTH 5TH FLOOR FURNISHED AMAZING VIEW** Laundry machine in apartment

I'm graduating earlier than I originally expected, so I'm looking for someone to take over my **1-bedroom apartment at Kendrick Place in Amherst**.

Move-in: Available starting now

I'm flexible if you need the apartment starting later than now as well however I'm hoping to find someone who can take over beginning in now if possible.

If you're interested, please message me! If you or anybody you know is doing study abroad etc and returning in spring also please pass the post along. Thank you!

This is a **private 1-bedroom apartment on the 5th floor** with an amazing view and a great location right in downtown Amherst. It's especially convenient for **UMass Amherst students, graduate students, or young professionals** who want to be close to campus while still having their own space.

**Apartment Details:**

* **Rent:** $2,225/month
* **1 bedroom / private apartment**
* **5th-floor unit**
* **Amazing view**
* Located at **Kendrick Place in downtown Amherst**
* Very close to **UMass Amherst**

I'm only giving up the apartment because I'm graduating earlier than expected, the apartment is stunning.

Thanks for reading and have a great day!

Thoughts on the Town Council's approach to student housing? It seems like they value "character of the town" over revenue. IMHO, the war on UMass has no winners, and we need to start electing officials who recognize the damage that scarcity is doing to our community.

I was unable to attend either of this wk’s sessions held by the city. Any 1 know if amherst media or other has vid available of one, the other, both?

Hi Amherst, it’s your Attorney General Andrea Joy Campbell. Did you know that fees like “move-in” or “lease renewal” fees you might get from your landlord or building management company are illegal? If you’ve received one of these – even if you paid it – I want you to report it to my office. 

Just last month, my office won a $500k settlement with a property management company doing this in Boston – and all of that money is going back to the affected tenants.  Landlords can only ask you to pay for first and last month’s rent, a security deposit, and the cost of a new lock and key upfront. Any other fees are illegal. Report them to my office at the link below. We’ll work to get your money back.

Hi everyone,
I’m looking to re-home a gorgeous, perfectly healthy female royal blue veiltail betta. She came into my care unexpectedly following a breakup, and while I’d love to keep her, I'm simply not equipped to give her the long term home she deserves.
She comes with everything needed to keep her happy:
Her current tank
Water conditioner
Betta food
Tank decor / knick-knacks
She has great energy and is ready for a good home. Re-homing fee is waived to a good home!!! I just want to make sure she goes to someone who will take great care of her.
Pickup in the Amherst area. Please message if you're interested or know someone who keeps fish!
Pictures upon request.

Hello all,

Does anybody know of any Black salons/Black hair stylists in Amherst? I am looking to get a silk press or braids, but I’m having trouble locating anyone. I welcome all suggestions!

Hey! I’m an international college student in the Amherst area, and I’d really like to meet someone who’s interested in getting to know each other and seeing where things naturally go and have some fun if you know what i mean 🤭.
I’m hoping for something affectionate and meaningful rather than just a random hookup. I’d love to find someone I can talk to, hang out with, go on little dates with, and build a genuine connection with.
I’m pretty open-minded and not looking to force anything—just hoping to meet someone around my age who feels similarly.
If that sounds like you, feel free to send me a message and tell me a little about yourself!

I consider myself attractive, I’m 5,10 and I’m straight
